Rainstorm on Eminence Road

Got caught in a surprisingly heavy rain storm when I was driving back to camp after a day out bike riding along NY 30 and then swimming at Mine Kill Pool.

Healthy foods and recipes 🍏

You are better off if you cook your own food from basic ingredients and don’t buy so called prepared “healthy foods”. Also stay away from recipes and cooking shows – most are bad advice.

Instead it’s better to learn a little bit about what is healthy, tastes good together and experiment. Cooking doesn’t have to have a million rules despite what the television says. Measuring cups really don’t have a place in the kitchen. They belong in the science laboratory.

The older generation died with their recipes not because they were hiding something but because they were the ultimate in experimenters, cooking based on what they had and knew in their head tasted good, not some recipe they had written down in a book.
